Intelsat 805 transponder 4107 H

**bill_bly_ca** · 09-02-2010 01:59 PM

Hello

I just registered today after a couple years of being Googled to this board with passing questions from time to time.

But this time I can not seem to find any answers to my specific questions and hope you can help.

I had been running a Pansat 2700 on G13 for a few years for my Wife's Spanish soap opera fix before they (Equity) went belly up last spring.

I then bought a 6' dish and , for about 8 months, had a good selection of Spanish channels on Intelsat 805. This bird specifically as there were 2 clear Nicaraguan channels (Where my wife is from) .

Back in April the 2 Nicaraguan channels disappeared (confirmed at the time by Lyngsat) but we limped along on the remaining Spanish channels.

Early August I saw the Nicaraguan mux had returned but now DVB-S2. So after some investigation (lots of Googling) I came to the conclusion that the reason my 2700 could not get the 4107 TP was because of the S2 the MP4 dictated a new receiver as well.

So we purchased the Nfusion HD as Lyngsat did not say that TP was 8PSK and was $150 less than the Pansat 9200 up here with the 8PSK board. But after set up we still receive no signal on 4107H.

Now after a little further googling there was a news listing on one of the boards that the 4107 TP changes to 8PSK on or about July 10 (Not shown on Lyngsat)

So .. Sorry for all be background My questions are.. .

1) Must I buy and install an 8PSK module to get any signal on 4107 H or can I at least verify I have signal with no quality with the existing QPSK front end? (I currently have no signal on the 2 documented 8PSK TPs I have tried)

2) Anyone @ 42deg of latitude or higher receiving a good signal of TP 4107H ?

3) All of our signal has declined across the board this year. I have swapped out the cable (RG6), removed the DiSC box, repositioned the dish even swapped the LNB in the last 48 hours with no increase of signal to our previous levels.

My next step is to move the semi-perminant dish install on the assumption of the better growing season has maybe made a neighbors tree grow into the signal path. Before I move the dish is there something else I am missing?

Sorry for all the words :-)

Just a guess, but the NFusion can not use "DVB-S2 8PSK" signals.

48n 97w - 4107 h 4000, Good signal here. Pansat 9200 w/S2+, but unable to get audio on this transponder.

Hello bill-bly-ca

well i bought this receiver from Sadoun and yes it reads DVB-S2 maybe u get best result with this receiver. brand SOLOMEND.

GOOD LUCK

I'm getting this TP real strong and clear in the carribean with my CS8000, but no audio at all. Does anybody knows if there is any way to get the audio?? maybe entering PIDs manually??

**FaT Air** · 09-07-2010 02:22 AM

I tried PID manual entry, no go. I think they are using DTS audio, which is neither mpeg or AC3.

) I haven't found a simple solution either.

The audio scans in as AAC on the AZBox...it plays it fine...big signal in NC....

**carlospr43** · 09-07-2010 11:07 AM

what is AAC, how can it be decoded?? Anyone???

...with a receiver that can decode AAC. The AZBox (in certain instances), Vantage and the Solomend (Sathawk) will, as well as a computer card receiver (PCI, PCIe, USB) with the proper codec.
